Oracle’s Next Generation SPARC Servers ―Oracle's SPARC T4 Servers are designed to deliver performance at every tier of the data center, across a wide range of workloads, while providing a robust building block for Oracle’s next-generation of engineered systems.” Jean S. Bozman, Research VP, Enterprise Servers, IDC

“The 5X improvement in Oracle’s SPARC T4 single thread performance shows that a well balanced CPU design can deliver both high throughput and high single thread performance.” Nathan Brookwood, Research Fellow, Insight 64


SPARC T4 Servers More than 50 impressed Beta customers

―At Qualcomm, our testing on the SPARC T4 systems showed huge performance improvements and impressive results across the operating system and SunRay login server. With the T4's new CPU performance, RAM capacity and stability of SPARC Solaris, our ‗per system user limit‘ will increase from 100 users on an M3000 to 200 users, while providing 4x CPU headroom. With increased experience and proficiency at managing the quantity of ‗liability‘ on one box, we hope to see numbers as high as 400 users per T4 server‖ Rob Mallory - IT Architect

―Our benchmark testing of Oracle’s SPARC T4 system on our ERP System led to impressive results. We saw performance enhancements of up to 4x compared to our legacy server. Deployment was easy; just a drop in. Our planned worldwide rollout will take advantage of the SPARC T4‘s very modest space, energy and heat requirements. In our production deployment we plan to use Oracle Solaris virtualization to implement containers and consolidate several workloads onto a single server.‖ Thomas Kleber, Department Lead IT, Kromberg & Schubert GmbH & Co 10

―Because we develop content management systems for many German federal and local governments, it is critical that Materna base its solutions on the most scalable and high performance technology. We are beta testing Oracle’s SPARC T4-1B blades with our "Government Site Builder" application and seeing throughput and single thread performance improvements of 5-7 times in comparison to the previous generation SPARC blades.‖

―Our beta testing of Oracle’s SPARC T4 server demonstrated impressive performance and an architecture that reduced complexity and operating costs. This excellent performance on our mixed throughput needs, combined with the SPARC T4‘s attractive software licensing terms, led to our decision to use the SPARC T4 system for our next generation archiving system.‖ 10

―As a leading global financial institution, ING needs servers that provide the highest levels of reliability and performance to support our mission-critical business applications. Our testing of the ING application stack on Oracle's SPARC T4 servers running Oracle Solaris proves Oracle‘s Sun servers deliver quality, predictability and complete backwards compatibility while greatly enhancing system performance.”

―SAS® Business Analytics enables faster, more accurate data-driven decisions. Whether it is risk analysis, fraud detection or complex optimization mathematics, implementing SAS Business Analytics on SPARC T4 solves critical business issues in transformational ways. SPARC has long been a proven platform for SAS applications; T4 delivers SPARC performance at its best.‖

―We chose to test Oracle SPARC SuperCluster for performance improvement of our current datawarehouse system and consolidation of sparse Oracle databases through implementation of RAC features. Our heaviest operation is datawarehouse loading and with SPARC SuperCluster we are expecting a huge improvement.‖

"We have tested the new SPARC T4-4 system against our current Siebel infrastructure on the SPARC M5000 and the performance of the T4 system was very positive. The moving of the applications from the current infrastructure to the new T4-4 was flawless with no need for a porting plan or specific tuning. Using virtualization with Solaris ones in the T4-4 system against a non virtualized Solaris environment in M5000—this was most impressive. Performance has doubled from our current servers. We think the SPARC T4-4 is the ideal platform for virtualizing and consolidating Siebel and other applications, from the web server down to the database server tier.”

Title: Rapid and Secure Acceleration of Enterprise Applications with Next Generation SPARC Enterprise Servers and Systems (T4 servers, Superclusters, and Solaris) Abstract: Establish a robust and flexible foundation for a next generation datacenter while dramatically improving application performance and reducing operational overhead with Oracle‘s new SPARC T4 systems and SPARC Superclusters running Oracle Solaris. Learn how the greatly improved performance of SPARC T4 servers running Oracle Solaris make them the most scalable, secure and integrated computing platforms for enterprise applications. See how Oracle has utilized SPARC T4 servers as the building blocks of the new SPARC Superclusters - multi-purpose engineered solutions that integrate optimized Exadata storage and Exalogic software into a flexible, highly available and cost-effective application consolidation platform. This presentation will examine how you can improve the reliability, security and adaptability of your data center by deploying the latest innovations of Oracle Solaris and Oracle Optimized Solutions running on SPARC T4 servers and SPARC Superclusters.
